pretty much any of our freshwater running creeks really, like the iron bridge area at howard springs, just remember if it holds water it more than likely has crocs !!

Go to lake bennet, seen a few recent hauls big red claws and even bigger cherabin, seen a couple around a foot long. The locals catch them on everything from cat food to soap

The lakes at Fairway Waters hold a good population of red claw
Tight lines and empty spools !

Scotts creek usually produces a few this time of the year
I got this lot last night, in about half an hour we bagged out but I'm not letting it out of the bag yet as to where at so as it does not get plundered by the wrong people
I can tell you that parks and wildlife are on the ball to bag limits on them t the moment so do the right thing or pay the price
Send me your phone number in a pm and I'll have a chat with you

Always thought that the Daly was the only placewith bag limits on them.Ive had more than 30 cherbin on me more than once didn't know I was doing any thing wrong.
If you have more than one person in the boat/vehicle does it increase per person.If there are 2 or more does the limit go up to 60
Cheers for the info

10 per person on Daly. Boat limit 30.
30 per person and boat limit it 90 elsewhere.
Fisheries have been pumping this info for a couple of years now. http://www.nt.gov.au/d/Fisheries/recrea ... mits.shtml
